Test Price$100.00 / 4 samples / mouse
DescriptionTEE is equal to the sum of basal metabolic metabolic, thermic effect of eating
and physical activity. Following a single bolus injection of 2H and 18O-labeled
water one can determine TEE via the elimination of 2H and 18O from body water.
This test requires serial measurements of the labeling of body water over
approximately 1 week, which necessitates the collection of blood or urine
samples.

Note: This test does not require catheterized mice, nor does it require that
mice be shipped to the MMPC. The isotopes are non-radioactive and no special
safety precautions are required, the tracers will be shipped from the MMPC to
the investigator. Investigators will be instructed on how to administer the
isotopes, collect samples and then ship them back to the MMPC.
